resident Barack Obama seems to have fallen short on economic and immigration promises he made to Latino voters before he was elected.
Still, his approval ratings among Latino voters increased to 70 percent after falling as low as 57 percent in June 2010 in a Gallup poll, according to La Opinión.
The Spanish-language newspaper cited a poll conducted by its parent company ImpreMedia and Latino Decisions, a research group that focuses on issues facing Latinos.
In 2008, Obama garnered 67 percent of the Latino votes, according to La Opinión. The same poll also concluded that Latino voters would not automatically vote for Obama. Only about 43 percent said they would vote for him next year.
"There is no doubt that Obama has the ability to win the Latino vote, and he still has solid support within the community,'' Matt Barreto, a political science professor at the University of Washington, told La Opinión. "But when it comes to whether they will vote for him for sure, Latinos show a margin of doubt."
Barreto is also a pollster for Latino Decisions.

“latino = illegal aliens
hispanic = legal immigrants
telemundo = univision = msnbc”
Mexican Americans I know, and I know plenty, apply the term latino to themselves. For their illegal cousins they have a whole host of terms, like mojado, choontie, naco, and a bunch that are far more uncomplimentary.
Good old Terry. I sure miss him. His website will go dark in four days.
“Good old Terry. I sure miss him. His website will go dark in four days.”
Me too, Pelham. We lost a treasure. What about the website? Where did you hear that?
I've also known a lot of out of there mind liberal scum who are white. Most of them have been far crazier than the lib latinos.
This thread is a load of whiners who are truly stereotyping. Not good folks.
It’s at the website:
http://www.theterryandersonshow.com/
“Web Site Shutting Down February 28
February 13, 2011 — Thank all of you for your support of the Terry Anderson Show. The family thanks you for your wishes, prayers, and condolences. This site will close down at the end of the month. It has been a trying time for all of us and we thank you for your patience. Good-bye and God bless.”
Well the Harpies and FR’s Southern Poverty Law Center fanboys (there was at least one Grover Norquist buttboy here that posted SPLC material) got their expertise on latinos from eating at Taco Bell once a month.
Those of us they tarred as nativists, xenophobes, bigots and all the rest of the dirty words they picked up from Olbermann and Dubya, actually know latinos. So we weren’t handicapped by the fictional latino world of their imaginations. We just went with what we know from experience.
“The Spanish-language newspaper? Are they to lazy or to stupid to learn english?.”
Neither. They are colonizing the US and are using their own language.
Blah, blah, blah. You egalitarians and 'color blind' tools are a large part of the reason that Latinos and all other races have the best of both worlds in this country. You berate those that notice how very one way and anti-white 'race relations' are in this country perpetuated by race groups like LaRaza, MEChA, LULAC, the Hispanic Caucus etc who steadily move forward with their racial agenda all the while the majority of the 'conservative' Latinos pretend not to notice their racial brethren and in fact they suggest that the 'bigots' & 'haters' should 'tone down the rhetoric' and you are only too happy to help them.
I don't like the insane politics of La Raza, etc any more than you do.
How many white lib neighbors do you have that are just as crazy? I have a lot of them.
bs
you cant argue wifh how most latinos vote Polly
like it or not the vast majority are liberals
not so with non latino whites...and a handful of minor demographics
58 percent of whites voted Juan McCain and he so kissed their ass
70% of latinos voted for Obama
65 % of Asians voted for Obama
there is a profound anti conservative vote in this nation by most minorities
its not debatable and the state of our country reflects that
once upon a time...before u id wager...it was easy for whites to vote well enough to thwart SEIU type whites. and minorities
thanks to the open doors you applaud...that is over
and it has crippled our viability in dealing with any challenge
42% of whites voted for Bambi, that's a pretty large percentage.
If you haven't seen the all white moon bat crowds protesting in Wisconsin or at the old anti-Iraq war parades, you've living with your head where the sun don't shine.
Liberalism is a disease infecting aryans too, you just don't want to admit it.
They did that in California,and look how screwed up the state is the new new Mexico I guess.
Thanks honey. Well, it’s just more sadness, seeing his website going down. I hope someone could pick up the mantle...but who on earth do you get to fill Terry Anderson’s place. Doubt it could be done.
Oh I get it....poor little thing has his own axe to grind.
There are some people here, that I am actually amazed they haven’t been jettisoned long ago. You’re dealing with one of those clowns right now.
Some of the front people for illegal immigrants also champion the Palestinians and the concept of reconquista.
And yet, this person states, “I’ve also known a lot of out of there mind liberal scum who are white. Most of them have been far crazier than the lib latinos.”
How do you get more crazy than supporting the Palestinians and their intention to destroy Israel, and the creation of the nation of Astlan on what used to be U. S. soil?
This person does not belong here.
You just slurred my wife who is Latina and very conservative and pro-American.
Why you have a problem with that is beyond me. Grow up sometime please.
